Tandem coarctations of the thoracic and abdominal aorta with an intervening segment of hypoplastic thoracic aorta were discovered unexpectedly in a 14-year-old boy brought to the emergency room for a displaced fracture of the radius. After the fracture healed, the boy's potentially dangerous anomalies were treated successfully with a unilateral axillofemoral prosthetic graft. This has remained patent for 42 months, and the boy has done well.
